WHAT A JOKE.
there is that thing called track, its the black bit in between the white lines, and you, as a driver, are expected to drive on that thing, not cut corners as you like and do the same normal lap times

if there wouldn't be this penalty, this drive-to-delta-taxi-f1 would have become a total joke

If Max didn't get penalised for his moves under braking; there is no way in hell Vettel will be penalised.

Wow. Fast and furious ending. I wonder how much Vettel will be fined for those radio comments...

There was a rule clarification after Japan that you must've missed. The inconsistency of rule application from FIA is staggering to say the least.
Education is that which allows a nation free, independent, reputable life, and function as a high society; or it condemns it to captivity and poverty.

Then every off track excursion that gave an advantage should've been penalised. Which is surely not the case.

I must have missed that. But agreed, the FIA is more inconsistent than most soccer ref's.

one must be VES fanboy to even begin to argue against that 5sec penalty

any driver that has any respect for other drivers out there, would have given the place in the same lap, him not doing it just shows how green he really is, great driver, but personality of a child

Ves cut to keep ahead of vettel, ros had nowhere to go and was ahead before the incident.
